In a social worker report‚ the Roodepoort Magistrate’s Court heard the Tjovitjo hit maker has been singing his yet-to-be-released music to inspire inmates. Ndlovu’s sentencing is under way in the Roodepoort Magistrate’s Court for raping his niece in 2013.

However‚ in the report presented this morning‚ Ndlovu still maintains that he is innocent.

His lawyer Pieter du Plessis asked the court to deviate from a minimum sentence and impose 10 years.

In mitigation‚ Du Plessis says Ndlovu is a positive human being.

“In the sentencing this court should decide whether he is a kind of person who the society should be protected from. The court should satisfy the interest of the society‚ not satisfy the outcry of the community‚” he said.

THE Daily Dispatch newspaper has a long and rich history dating back to 1872. It was the first penny daily newspaper published in the Eastern Cape in 1898. By 1906 the paper boasted a circulation larger and more widely distributed than any colonial paper published outside Cape Town. In its centenary it became the first newspaper in SA to offer full colour facilities to its advertisers and readers. Dispatch has also always been at the forefront of exposing injustice in its region and advocating fair treatment for all South Africans.
